The MCU has evolved a lot since its foundation was laid by Iron Man in 2008. The franchise is responsible for the cinematic debut of characters that we have known and loved in the comics. No wonder Marvel Studios has earned billions at the box office.
While the conflict between superheroes and supervillains is a routine thing in this genre, every character has their strong and weak side, and every hero and every antagonist possesses unique powers. But who are the strongest MCU superheroes? Let’s take a deep dive!
The Strongest Superheroes In The MCU
10. Ant-Man
Scott Lang was a criminal, but after getting the suit of Hank Pym, he became an ant-themed superhero. Scott can expand to full size as per his wish, and up to the size of a tower. He can also shrink or expand objects with thrown discs while fighting his enemies. Now, that gives him a serious edge while evading the baddies.

9. Shang-Chi
Shang-Chi made his MCU debut in 2021. He was pressured by his father, Xu Wenwu, to become an assassin. Although he stayed away from his father for a long time, the duo confronted each other in another world, where Shang-Chi managed to defeat him. The character now has the Ten Rings with him.
8. Black Panther
Black Panther made his debut in ‘Captain America: Civil War’ in 2016, and the character continued to make appearances until ‘Avengers: Endgame’ in 2019. Audiences witnessed King T’Challa defeating Killmonger. He was also a victim of the Blip but was revived in Endgame, confronting Thanos and his army for one last time.
7. Vision
Vision was envisioned as an evil wrecking ball powered by artificial intelligence. He is made of vibranium and can control the power of the Mind Stone. The Avengers couldn’t have had a victory without him. Nearly indestructible, Vision is an image of true genius as well as combat skills.
6. Spider-Man
Spider-Man is a superhero who can scale walls and throw webs, and the character’s debut in the MCU enhanced his powers as Stark technology upped his game. His suit now features the best of the best facilities, which can be commonly found in Tony Stark’s possession.

5. Hulk
Hulk is a character who is still waiting for a proper debut in the MCU. While ‘The Incredible Hulk’ was not successful in terms of box office collections, audiences are waiting to witness Mark Ruffalo in a standalone film. He is so strong that he could fight the Chitauri during Loki’s invasion of New York, and his anger also works as an alternate power for him.
4. Thor
Thor has been in the MCU for a long time. This God wields the Mjolnir and Stormbreaker and has a lot of energy, strength, and stamina. He can use lightning to finish off those who go against him. Seriously, Thor is a force that dominates the universe, quite literally.
3. Doctor Strange
Doctor Strange is introduced as a character who tries to find a cure for himself after his hands are injured in a car accident. While he trains himself as a master of the mystic arts, he is also the protector of the Time Stone. But he is powerful even without the stone. After all, he is one of the greatest sorcerers in the MCU.
2. Captain Marvel
Carol Danvers can travel between planets and the solar system. There are very few characters in the Marvel universe who have such ease of accessibility. She can wield a lot of cosmic energy, and also, Captain Marvel’s fighting style includes fire photon blasts with which she defeats her enemies. Very cool, right?
1. Wanda Maximoff
Introduced in ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ in 2015, Wanda Maximoff continued to improvise in terms of her powers. She was an Avenger, but Vision’s death affected her to such an extent that she had to create an imaginary world of her own where she could live peacefully with him and their kids. Moreover, the character’s dark side was also explored in ‘Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness‘. She is someone you wouldn’t wanna cross.
